What are the best embeddable calendar widgets for websites?

Last updated July 14, 2026

Embeddable calendar widgets let you display your upcoming events directly on your website, with options for visitors to add individual events or subscribe to your full calendar.

AddEvent embeddable calendar

The most feature-complete embeddable calendar for marketing use. Embeds on any website with a single code snippet. Supports month, week, and schedule views; is fully customizable to match your brand; and includes a Follow Calendar button so visitors can subscribe and get all future events automatically in their personal calendar app. Works with WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, and custom sites. Includes an events list widget as a lighter alternative. Best for: businesses promoting events to an external audience.

The Events Calendar (WordPress)

The most popular WordPress event calendar plugin with 800,000+ active installs. Strong for displaying events with rich filtering and category views. RSVP and Add to Calendar require paid extensions. Best for: content-heavy WordPress sites with complex event categorization.

Google Calendar embed

Google Calendar provides a basic iframe embed code. Free, zero setup, but shows Google branding and has limited styling options. Visitors cannot subscribe to your calendar from the embed. Best for: internal or informal event displays where branding is not a priority.

FullCalendar (developer library)

Open-source JavaScript library for building custom calendar UIs. Highly flexible - you supply the event data and control the full rendering. Requires developer work. Best for: product teams building custom event scheduling into an application.
